:(

The only part that angered Spec was the one guy who said "The state was supposed to take care of us"
No, they arent. Your supposed to take care of yourself.

Spec hopes, dearly, that the people who make it out of this realize that government goodie bags are NOT a goood way to live, and become more self sufficient and more prepared to take care of themselves.

I do have agree with Mr Spec :shock:

Whether you think the government should or shouldn't look after it's citizens is irrelevent, it's pretty clear the good ol' US of A can't or won't.

So reckon the future's bright?

Well, the future is bright if people LEARN.
Unfortunately, history has proven they wont.
They will complain because they dont get enough from the gubment, then when SHTF they will complain the gubment didnt do enough, didnt bring enough, didnt do it fast enough, then when its all over.....
They'll go back to complaining they arent getting enough from the gubment.

Spec should remember that the State does have an obligation to maintain order and safety for the citizens. Seems to me that the authorities screwed up and did not fulfill their obligations.

Just remember that no matter what, this all about the black man and his plight and how the government hates him.

Yeah, the black man who has more rights than the white man, only has to earn C's in college to get tons of free money while a white has to make streight A's to get a little aid, the black man who is given free houses, free jobs, a free ride all the way.

White man: Oh, a hurricane's coming, this doesn't look good, ok pack up camping gear, on bike, in car, in backpacks, get out of here. Spend his own money on Spam or whatever, take responsibility for his own life.

Black man: Sit on ass and ask when's Momma Gov't gonna gimme gimme gimme. Shoot at rescuers, rape kids, kill the old, and if one black journalist is to be trusted, eat the dead.

Just sayin'.

New Orleans bright new future!

Rape, violence, crime, vomit, urine, feces, looting, car jacking, lawless abandon...

Funny, but that does not sound too different than NO before the storm.

On the up side for NO, they have managed to displace their poor... many of whom will probably not return to NO.

My new neighbors.

Should make Kappa Kappa Kappa weekend here even more fun.

figures...
The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

If the disenfranchised stay away, and NO is bebuilt on federal dollars, it could become quite prosperous.
Stop filling dumpsters, as much as you possibly can, and everything will get better.

Just think it through.
It's not hard to do.

'Fraid not PMS.
Court rulings have stated, quite plainly and clearly, the government has no obligation to do anything for you other then push your body out of the way so you dont block traffic.
Look into it.
